## Key findings

- Particle's mass, charge, and radius derived from junction conditions.
- Model applicable in at least 7-dimensional spacetime.
- Provides a framework for geometrical particle models in higher-order gravity theories.

## Abstract

By using the formalism of thin-shells, we construct a geometrical model of a particle in third-order Lovelock gravity. This particular theory which is valid at least in 7 dimensions, provides enough degrees of freedom and grounds towards such a construction. The particle consists of a flat interior and a non-black hole exterior spacetimes whose mass, charge, and radius are determined from the junction conditions, in terms of the parameters of the theory.
